About Danica

Consensus builder. Change Maker.

Since I was sworn in to the Virginia House of Delegates on January 10, 2018, I have heard from thousands of Virginians about what is most important to them and their families. I'm running for the state Senate in 2023 to help improve our quality of life by working on the issues I spent nine years reporting about for the newspaper.

My number one job as your elected representative isn't to speak. It's to listen. To listen to residents, write down their concerns, ideas, and questions, follow up with them, and ensure what they tell me is part of my policy platform. That's how I took notes and wrote news stories, and that's how I craft public policy: Research. Question. Listen. Report. That is how we make real change.
